Bonnie: I can't believe no one in Italy wanted me!
Ron: There she goes again.
Bonnie: I don't do pathetic.
Ron: You could have fooled me.
Bonnie: What?!
Ron: You can count on me.. when this over! (edit)
(Ron and Bonnie are trying to find her a new boyfriend)
Bonnie: I want somebody else on my team.
Ron: Trust me, this will work.
(A line of guys are standing in front on Bonnie's table)
Bonnie: (signing a yearbook) Thank you for coming. Go Mad Dogs.
Bonnie: (to Ron) Mark him down as never.
Ron: Ah ha, yes, very popular catagory today. Next! Hey Tiny!
(A very tall guy walks up)
Tiny: Yo.
Bonnie: He's a big no.
Ron: 'Big' was not a shot at your size by the way. It's about how she is hugely not into you. So no hard feelings?
(Tiny walks away as Larry walks up)
Larry: Hey Ron. Wow, you didn't say she was this fascinating. You know, you bear a strong resemblance to my favorite queen, Udillia of the planet Gropnos.
Bonnie: This is not happening to me!
Ron: Okay, Lar. Alright, so I'll see you at next week's Netherworld battle strategies meeting?
Bonnie: Abandoning hope now. (edit)
MHS Sign: Meet the Queen at 3pm (edit)
(Bonnie is crying histerically)
Kim: Bonnie, uh, I wish I could help.
Bonnie: Me... needing help from you? I should be horrified, but I don't even have my pride anymore. Fine, I accept.
Kim: Accept what?
Bonnie: Your offer to find me a new hottie.
Kim: Okay, there's plenty of seniors out there... that aren't Ron.
Wade: But what about Rotiffle?
Bonnie: Never heard of him. Does he even go to Middleton High?
Ron: No, he's the idle of serious snackers everywhere! Do not tell me he's missing again!
Bonnie: Who cares? I have a real problem here.
Kim: Which is much more important than my mission.
Bonnie: Finally, you're getting it.
Kim: Okay, we'll split into teams. (edit)
(Kim witnesses Bonnie kissing Ron)
Kim: (furiously) What is the sitch?
Ron: I was the kissee here, not the kisser!
Kim: No kidding! It took you twelve stinkin' years to kiss me!
Ron: Ah, whew. Hey, wait a minute...
Kim: (to Bonnie) I don't know what you're up to, but this is a new low, even for you.
Bonnie: Oh yeah, well speaking of low...
Kim: ...which I am.
Bonnie: You... you're...
Kim: Well...?
Bonnie: Well... well... I, uh...
(Bonnie suddenly breaks down crying)
Kim: Okay, um...
Bonnie: Bri, bri, oh, bro, bro, ohh, broke, uuup, wit, eeeeeeeeee...
Ron: Uh, I don't speak hysterical.
Kim: Brick broke up with you?
Ron: How do you know what she said?
Kim: It's a girl thing.
Ron: So I'm the rebound guy? Cool! I've never been the rebound guy!
(Kim frowns)
Ron: Uh, but you know, it's not as wonderful as being your guy. (edit)

Trivia

add »
Kim should have figured out that it was Junior who had Rotiffle when she saw the man she encountered at his house. The man was dressed exactly the same as the henchmen Junior began using in the episode And the Molerat will be CGI. (edit)
The restaurant that Ron and Bonnie appear at for its "grand reopening" is the same restaurant destroyed in Car Alarm earlier in the season. (edit)
For one shot while she and Wade are researching Dr. Rotiffle's second disappearance, Kim is wearing her old mission clothes. While her whole body cannot be seen, you can tell that she is wearing a black shirt instead of her new purple one. (edit)
When Ron is on Coco Banana's plane on his way to Venice, he is in his mission clothes. However, when they arrive in Venice, he is wearing his usual clothes. Later, when he is in the boat, he has returned to his mission outfit. (edit)
We learn that Kim is seventeen years old when she says she had to wait twelve years to get a kiss from Ron. (edit)

Allusions

add »
From Russia with Love:

As Kim and company are chasing Junior through the canals of Venice, Junior plows into a dock loaded with barrels. He then looks back over his shoulder and blows them up with a flare gun to try to slow Kim up. In From Russia With Love, James Bond does the same exact thing while trying to escape to Venice. (edit)
Dr. Rotiffle:

Dr. Rotiffle's name is a reference to his hobby as a blogger. If you sound out his last name, it is the phonetic spelling and pronunciation of the popular acronym "ROTFL", which is internet slang for "rolling on the floor, laughing". (edit)

"Painful to watch"
I'm not sure where people got "good episode" from Bonnie being an insufferable twit for 22 min with no worthy payoff. Steve Loter said fans would be buzzing from this episode. The only buzz I got was the desire to see Bonnie dead. One of KP's worst.
